Late summer has to be one of my favourites times of year with all of the amazing fresh produce that is available and I particularly enjoy all of the field ripened tomatoes! One of the best, quickest and easiest way to enjoy all of those tomatoes has to be in BLTs! A BLT is a sandwich consisting of bacon lettuce and tomato and it is a classic with good reason as the salty bacon, the crisp lettuce and sweet and the juicy tomatoes is a magical combination! All it takes to make a BLT is to cook the bacon, assemble the sandwich and you are in cloud nine in less than ten minutes!

Mayo is a good addition to an already amazing BLT and since it is late summer, why not make it a basil mayo or a pesto mayo?

Just look at that perfectly ripe tomato!

BLT (Bacon Lettuce and Tomato Sandwich)

A bacon, lettuce and tomato sandwich is one of the best way to enjoy some nice ripe tomatoes!

Oh man, you are my kind of guy. I was just thinking about making BLT's tomorrow (seriously, I really was planning on making them), and now I'm scrapping that plan and making these instead. I've had them with avocado before, and seeing it again here, in various forms, has rekindled my want of it. Your addition of egg is inspired. Bravo, Kevin!

Kevin rico,rico,rico!!! yummy, yummy absolutely yummy!!!I insist you make the best sandwich I know!!!! this is my next sandwich I will taste!!Remember the freeze burgers I had yesterdayt The childs eat all them!! we arrive later yesterday and they were so hungry!! I have to do again! xxGloria

Hi Kevin!At this time of year, with 'real' tomatoes, I don't think there is such a thing as a bad BLT!You might want to try this one, for a special treat - use Applewood smoked bacon, and add sprouts to your already wonderful sandwich. I call this a 'California' BLT, and it's awesome!

Wow, those sandwiches delicious! If only I could make a sandwich as neat as that. You just reminded me that I actually haven't had one in years if you can believe and you had one or two BLT(A)(G) in a day!

My mom use to make BLT's on a regular basis and I always LOVED them! The addition of Avocado sounds awesome, and I am going to have to try it. I always ate mine with mayo, but mashing some Avocado is going to be SO good!

It IS amazing how you can take such a simple sandwich and make it look so darn good!Red Robin (restaurant) has the most amazing BLATT (bacon, lettuce, avocado, tomato, and turkey--on a crossaint! So good!

I just bought some little baby cherry tomatoes from our farmer's market today that are almost like eating candy, so sweet and good!

BLAT sandwishes totally *rock* (as do bacon, feta and avocado sandwiches, now that I think of it!). Love the idea of the avocado added as guacamole. Now all I want to know is how to get my mouth around that?!

How ironic. WE had BLT's the same night. I wanted to make bread but it was 90 here. I bought a loaf of sour dough and made real bacon. I usually am a turkey bacon fan but you have to have at least one of these with summer's fresh tomatoes.

I came to realize that my meals were boring and that I had been eating the same few dishes over and over again for years. It was time for a change! I now spend my free time searching for, creating and trying tasty new recipes in my closet sized kitchen.
